Actually the limit is three unless you disable "Multitasking Gestures" in General Settings. Mackie recommends that you do that, I've chosen not to (I forget why).

Not easy when you are holding the iPad with your hands to the side and using either thumb for quick changes.
And try moving two aux masters in unison ...

Yes, I know that. The point of stereo linking (among other things) is to eliminate the need to move two independent faders in unison when they always operate in unison. I don't know about you, but none of my fingers are the same length. So in order to grab a pair of faders and move them together with any accuracy I have to position my hand at a weird angle on the iPad. Which messes up my general handling of the iPad.
I didn't say it couldn't be done ... I said it's a pain in the butt ...
And, for stereo auxes, it can't be done -- you have to switch screens. Therefore the restriction to mono FOH when you are doing stereo recording on a separate mix.

Break button....Just sayin'.

Monitor feedback...which one? I'll just page through all six auxes while the guilty monitor screams. A Master Page...I'm just sayin'.

And by the way, if Mackie can give us an 8 channel DL for a couple of hundred dollars less than the 1608, can they give me a 24 channel DL for a couple of hundred bucks more?
